- Description
- The U.S. Army RDECOM Contracting Center, Natick Contracting Division, in support of the U.S. Army Natick Soldier Research, Development and Engineering Center (NSRDEC) has a need for textile fabrication services for a wide range of textile prototype items. This service will address surge demands for textile prototype fabrication that will supplement internal NSRDEC textile prototyping/ fabrication capabilities. This requirement is oriented towards incremental designs and concept/developmental items. As such, fabrication quantities are expected to be between 1 and 200 items. Items fabricated under this contract will be evaluated and tested by the Government to enable continued/iterative design improvements and evaluation en route to a final design. A key attribute of this contract is to replicate, to the greatest practical extent, the internal NSRDEC capability for prototype fabrication of textile items. This capability is characterized by emphasis on certain characteristics such as timely and frequent face-to-face collaboration between the fabricator (contractor) and Government designers, rapid turnaround and delivery of fabricated items, and Government retention of unlimited rights to all technical data resulting from the collaborative and incremental fabrication process. The Draft Statement of Work and other attachments are available on the Army Single Face to Industry (ASFI) (https://acquisition.army.mil/asfi/default.cfm) website under W911QY09R0016 and the Natick Contracting website (www3.natick.army mil (Business Opportunities/Upcoming Acquisitions/W911QY-09-R-0016). The Government anticipates making multiple awards, but reserves the right to make a single multiple or no awards. This requirement is a total 100% small business set-aside. The NAICS code for these items is 541490, and the business size standard is $6,500,000.00. This is not a request for proposals (RFP). The Government intends to make multiple Firm-Fixed Price (FFP) Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) awards as a result of the Request for Proposals (RFP). Successful vendors will receive a guaranteed minimum order and will have the opportunity to compete on subsequent Task Orders. The Government anticipates a five year ordering period with One (1) Base Year and Four (4) Option Years. Comments relating to this synopsis should be submitted via email to Kevin Parker, at kevin.james.parker@us.army.mil no later than 15 January 2009. The Government anticipates releasing the RFP on or about 19 January 2009 and will be open for thirty (30) days.
